    The Soft Opening of Electric Room for One Management's 10th Birthday with DeLeon Tequila

    Other Details: Nur Khan's new very tight-door club will only allow 90 to 100 people to enter  - which is already causing a total shit show at the door. The club has a ramp were guests waited to see if they could get in, like a "loading dock" as one of our guests described it. The soft opening celebrated 10 years of the modeling agency One Management, which has represented models including Bar Refaeli, Iman and Claudia Schiffer.

    According to the press release, Electric Room will have "two gothic-inspired chandeliers" to provide intimate lighting and a separate entrance to the "hidden venue" -- sounds like they are attempting to keep it as exclusive as possible.
